"Ninety-nine percent or more of our Napster users will never bump their heads against any usage rules," Chris Gorog, Roxio's chairman and chief executive, told The Associated Press Wednesday "They're going to be in an environment where everything costs the same, where every song that they select they can burn to a CD or offload to their device, they can do it multiple times and they won't even know what the usage rules are because they are so flexible -based Roxio downplayed their effect The new Napster will also have to contend with iTunes, which has sold more than 10 million songs and is expected to be available on the Windows platform by year's end Roxio is betting the Napster brand will help set its service apart from a bevy of other digital music retailers that have launched since Apple Computer Inc com's BuyMusic "It validates Roxio's strategy to enter this business com, RealNetworks' Rhapsody, MusicNow and MusicNet, are also vying for a piece of the market Others, including Buy introduced its iTunes Music Store in April The service will be available to the general public within a month, according to sources familiar with the plans At the same time, online music sales are expected to grow from 1 percent of the total music market to 12 percent in 2008, generating about $1 "The space has become crowded because there's a recognition of this is going to be a very substantial business," Gorog said The company shelved its former online music service, pressplay, and was beginning to move subscribers to a beta, or working version, of Napster 2 0 0 users can expect prices to be in line with what other services charge, which is about $1 per song and about $10 for full albums or monthly subscription Pressplay, which went off-line Tuesday, only offered access to songs for a monthly fee launched a Web site that sells song and album downloads and boasts record label licensing agreements that offered the fewest copying restrictions yet outside of iTunes " The music industry has seen CD sales plummet over the last three years as illegal music file-sharing exploded, beginning with the original Napster, which was forced to shut down in 2001 after a protracted legal battle with recording companies Napster 2 5 billion in sales, according to Jupiter Research Traffic on Kazaa's network, the most popular, dropped 41 percent between the last week of June and mid-September, according to Nielsen NetRatings, which monitors Internet usage scooped up the Napster brand from the ashes of the pioneer file-swapping service, a revamped online music store bearing the familiar brand name was debuting Thursday in limited release 0 will incorporate some usage restrictions, but officials at Santa Clara, Calif Meanwhile, file-sharing over the most popular peer-to-peer networks has declined in recent weeks, coinciding with a lawsuit campaign launched against downloaders by the recording industry New Pay Version of Napster Service Debuts Oct 9, 6:50 AM EST Nearly a year after software maker Roxio Inc Like other music download retail sites, Napster 2 Last week, MusicMatch Inc The service will launch with more than a half-million songs from all the major music labels and offer both individual song and album downloads as well as a subscription service " The company planned to disclose further details Thursday during an official launch Good pictures If you aren't the "leading man" type, be something else It's easy to tell if you are a (female)fashion model: You are 5'10" tall, 34-24-34, all give or take an inch or so It requires investment of time, money and patience But that's pretty much a true description of a fashion model anyway ) If you aren't a fashion model, you might be some other kind The agency can't do that for you Commercial models tend to be shorter (most women aren't 5'10" tall, and very, very few are 5'11" ) and more "real" looking If you aren't a "fashion model", be something else There are models who self-market, and they are free to market themselves to whatever types of clients they want, and call themselves whatever kind of model they want Be someone that photographers, clients and agents want to work with It isn't always clear what that means, even though as agents we have to make the judgment many times a day 3 (Yes, I know all about Plus models, and there are exceptions to any blanket statement, especially one made by a guy who isn't actually in the fashion business Being a model requires showing up, on time, ready for whatever you are going to do As often as not it means "pleasant to look at" even if not "handsome" or "pretty" 5 It requires a lot of initiative on your part "You're commercial" from a fashion agency doesn't count Understand this is a business, and has to be treated in a business-like way 2 A "good look" Be what you are But here are a few things that I think make a difference: 1 And, most importantly, a fashion agency tells you you are a fashion model 4 An agency can guide you, but you have to actually do what it takes to succeed If all of the above isn't true, you aren't a fashion model But you know you are a commercial print model when a commercial print agency tells you you are If you are a pain in the butt, they will find someone else to have in the studio or the agency A very self-critical, honest evaluation is necessary, and all too few people are capable of it But for agency models, the only way to tell what kind you are is to have an agency say "sign here" - and you are then by definition whatever kind of model they represent Do whatever you have to do to get them - they are critical in helping an agency, photographer, client or casting director see you as a professional who can be what they need you to be Find things that commercial clients actually hire, and that you can actually do, and do them Some are pretty successful at it Only an agency in your local area, that works in your market, can tell you what you are - and if they tell you you are something they don't do, it doesn't mean much What makes a commercial print model successful, by RandL "What makes a commercial print model successful?" You'll probably get as many answers to this as there are print models and agents combined Which leads to Some have it, some don't; those that don't can often overcome it by being creative and not trying to be something they are not Have a pleasant personality |
